Independent beauty boutiques to stock my brand
Independent boutiques with their owner and an approved wholesale pitch.
What it does
Every month: independent cosmetics, perfume and beauty supply stores in your target cities, the best-rated first, with the owner from Apollo and a wholesale pitch by xMap AI, approved by you, sent from Gmail.
In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, in Paris and Lyon, find cosmetics stores, perfume stores and beauty supply stores in the area, keep only new ones, find the Owner, Buyer and Store Manager with Apollo, write a summary of each with xMap AI, wait for approval, then send email in Gmail and email the list to you.
Why it is useful
Being on a boutique’s shelf builds trust online. Independents decide fast when the pitch is personal.

The time it saves
Monthly on the 1st at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 90 minutes each time; it runs about 1 time a month, so it saves about 2 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 9 blocks.
